MCF7 cells gene expression change by inducing CpG demethylation using 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine (Aza)

ABSTRACT: Promoter methylation is able to induce downregulation of gene expression. 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine(Aza), methytransferase inhibitor, induce CpG demethylation. Here, 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine(Aza) is treated in a human breast cancer cell, MCF7, for detection of gene expression change. To analyze gene expression change by aza, control RNA isolated from MCF-7 was compared with RNA isolated from MCF-7 treated with 5uM and 10uM aza.
